CARB-E in an aircraft boneyard
CARB-E across industries

One waste robot.
Your composite solution.

CARB-E gives composite manufacturers a dedicated on-site route to take control of waste. Explore where recovered output can create the next opportunity in your sector.

01 / Automotive

Lightweight parts. Less material lost.

Production offcuts and end-of-life composites can be assessed for new automotive materials. Recycled-carbon compounds are a possible route for injection-molded parts when performance requirements are met.

  • Protective partsGuards, covers and other non-critical components.
  • Interior componentsLightweight trim and housings with recycled content.
  • DevelopmentPrototypes that test the part before a production decision.

02 / Aerospace

Recover value from high-cost scrap.

Aerospace production generates valuable composite offcuts. A controlled recycling route can turn suitable streams into feedstock for tooling and other applications that pass their own qualification process.

  • Tooling & fixturesProduction aids and assembly supports.
  • Ground-use partsNon-flight applications with defined requirements.
  • Material trialsCharacterization before any use in a new part.

03 / Sports

Performance material deserves another run.

Sporting goods use carbon for light weight and a distinctive material feel. Recovered fibers can be explored in accessories, protective parts and product concepts where durability is validated for the intended use.

  • AccessoriesLightweight functional details and housings.
  • Product conceptsVisible prototypes that make material circularity tangible.
  • Low-volume partsSelected components after product-level testing.

04 / Industry

Put recovered fiber back to work.

Industrial teams can test recycled-carbon materials in practical production aids and selected components. Compounding, injection molding and large-format printing offer different routes depending on the part.

  • Jigs & fixturesUseful production tools made with secondary material.
  • HousingsFunctional enclosures where a compound fits the specification.
  • Large-format printingPrototypes and tooling made from recycled-fiber feedstock.

From waste to innovation

Innovation starts with your material.

Get your material analysed. Modern AI-assisted material science and analytics help reveal its recycling potential and where it could create value next.

  1. 01
    Material analysis · start here

    Discover what's possible.

    We assess your material, its recyclability and possible second-life routes within your supply chain or our application network.

  2. 02
    Product development

    Design its next use.

    We develop suitable recycled materials and test how they can work in manufacturing processes and new products.

  3. 03
    Scaling recycling

    Make it repeatable.

    Once the route is qualified, process data and AI-assisted optimization help scale output and improve efficiency.

Your material is the starting point.

You don't need a finished recycling concept. A material sample is enough to start the conversation.
